Some of improvements are
back-portings from FreeMarker 2.3rc1.</p>
<h2 class="content-header header-section2" id="autoid_257">Changes on the FTL side</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>New <a href="ref_specvar.html">special variable</a>:
<code class="inline-code">.vars</code>. This is useful to read top-level
variables with square bracket syntax, for example
<code class="inline-code">.vars[&quot;name-with-hyphens&quot;]</code> and
<code class="inline-code">.vars[dynamicName]</code>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>New built-ins for Java and JavaScript string escaping:
<a href="ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_j_string">j_string</a> and <a href="ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_js_string">js_string</a></p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="content-header header-section2" id="autoid_258">Changes on the Java side</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Bugfix: The template cache didn&#39;t reload the template when
it was replaced with an older version.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Bugfix:
<code class="inline-code">freemarker.template.utility.DeepUnwrap</code>
unwrapped sequences to empty
<code class="inline-code">ArrayList</code>-s.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Bugfix: In error messages, when the quoted FTL directive
had nested content, that was quoted as well, so the quotation
could be very long and expose nested lines needlessly.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code class="inline-code">freemarker.template.TemplateExceptionHandler.HTML_DEBUG_HANDLER</code>
now prints more HTML-context-proof messages.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>You can query the FreeMarker version number with static
method <code class="inline-code">Configuration.getVersionNumber()</code>.
Also, the <code class="inline-code">Manifest.mf</code> included in
<code class="inline-code">freemarker.jar</code> now contains the FreeMarker
version number, furthermore, executing it with <code class="inline-code">java
-jar freemarker.jar</code> will print the version number to
the stdout.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Date support is now labeled as final. (It was experimental
earlier.) There was no change since FreeMarker 2.2.1.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="content-header header-section2" id="autoid_259">Other changes</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Fixes and improvements in the Manual and in the API
JavaDoc. The documentation now works with the Eclipse help
plugin (accessible in the "Editor/IDE plugins"
section of the FreeMarker Web page).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Minor site improvements.</p>
</li>
